Chevy Suburban Trouble Spots

Consumer Guide's® Auto Editors have scoured repair bulletins and questioned mechanics to search for commonly occurring problems for the Chevy Suburban. Their findings are listed below and the need for a Chevrolet Suburban extended auto warranty is evident. While Chevy makes a wonderful SUV, we were surprised at the frequent repair visits drivers needed during their ownership.

Chevrolet Suburban auto warranties will protect against GM factory labor rate increases too. As many of us already know, GM service facilities have raised their labor rate for shop mechanics many times over the last several years. Chevy parts prices are near the highest in history too. There is a price to pay for riding in style in an SUV like this!

Additional Problems:

Audio system: When using a portable music player (e.g. iPod) there may be noise in the car's speakers whenever the vehicle's power adapter is used and a ground loop isolator (from Radio Shack) is required between the device and the power outlet to prevent the noise. (2007-08)

Coolant leak: A drive belt pulley may rub a hole in the radiator vent hose resulting in a coolant leak and possible overheating. (2007)

Cupholders: The console cup holders allow drinks to fall out when cornering unless the original mats were replaced with liners having ears that retain the drink. (2007)

Electrical problem: Numerous electrical problems (door locks, power windows, speakers, courtesy lights etc.) may quit working because a wiring harness gets damaged by the seat belt. (2007)

None: The backup (rear vision) camera quits working due to an electrical connector coming loose. (2007)

Oil leak: An oil leak at the oil pressure sensor may cause the low oil light to come on and oil level to become low. (2006-07)

Wipers: The one-piece wiper blades may streak when driving at slow speeds because they do not press firmly enough and should be traditional, bridge style blades. (2007-08)
